Planning a trip to the United Kingdom this year? There are new visa requirements for all American travelers.
As of Jan. 8, Americans traveling to the United Kingdom for less than six months will need an Electronic Travel Authorization, according to CNN.
ETAs are a pre-travel authorization form needed to fly to the UK. This includes the countries of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Here’s how it will work:
Upload a photo of your passport and photo of yourself.
Answer various questions about your trip.
This process takes about 20 minutes to complete. There is a fee of $12.25 to submit the form.
It takes about three days to get approved, but UK officials warn it could take longer. Once you’re approved, it is good for two years.
